Trust and integrity are the most valuable assets of Bittrex International. As a result of significant, last-minute changes with RAID, we have cancelled the IEO offering of the RAID token. We apologize for the inconvenience. We will provide a more complete statement shortly.

OP.GG terminated its strategic partnership with RAID, which was a vital part of the RAID project. When Bittrex International became aware of this significant event, we did not feel that it was in the best interest of our customers to move forward with the IEO.

Concerning the similar context, OP.GG reportedly confirmed that there will be no economic and technical cooperation with RAID Project. However, the platform servers 45 million monthly active users and with the recent announcement, all potential business discussion related to RAID project is no longer the concern of OP.GG.
